If there is this all powerful being, where did he come from?

Lamest question in history. I can ask the same thing just reverse it, where did everything needed for the big bang come from?

Nice non-answer.  As is expected for those that believe blindly.

The big bang, as with any scientific theory, is constantly trying to be proven and disproven.  Striving to find answers is the exact opposite of any religion, since they already claim to have all the answers.

So my belief is blind but yours isn't? You're believing in theories and hypotheses about things that supposedly happened billions of years ago.

Those theories don't come out of nowhere, they're well based on what we know about the universe. And while many believe them to be true, many are also willing to believe something else if it turned out those theories were wrong. It's more like "I believe it's true because it is likely to be true" rather than "I believe it's true because I feel like it", and there's a huge difference there.

Science tries to perfect itself, religion does not. In science, doubt is your friend, and if you don't believe a theory is correct, feel free to correct it. If you manage to do that, the old theory will be forgotten and a new one will take its place.

Believing a theory is right is definitely different compared to believing a god exists.
